I think this is probably the first time I've been in love with a hair product.It's just, perfect.I was actually quite worried that this product would be too heavy for my hair type.I have very fine, lower waist length wavy hair.Before I found this product my waves felt completely dry, some parts of my hair would have wave whilst other strands would remain entirely straight. It looked like rats tails and I figured that no product would be able to give it the kiss of life.Well, I was wrong.A small amount of this product completely transformed my hair.I found that using one or two small pea sized amounts gave my hair a lot of moisture.This product sort of acts like a leave in conditioner,within seconds I felt my hair start to detangle... I figured the moisture boost would dissipate when my hair dried, but nope.This product made my hair feel a lot softer and easier to manage and the effects did not wear off between washing.As for the 'curl activating' part, it did just that.Instead of stringy mixed texture 'waves', I have full, spirally and moisturised curls.I didn't think that was possible since my hair is so long and so easy to weigh down.The only critique I could give it, is that the bottle itself; is quite rigid and the product isn't the easiest to get out...But, that really is just one minor flaw in comparison to the product inside.This definitely does what it says on the tin... and more.I'll be buying this again when it runs out, (which won't be for a really long time) since the bottle seems huge and so little is needed.

Best thing ever for curly, hair!If you have hair like mine, that is actually really curly, but without a bit of "work" just looks a frizzy mess, then this is for you.Initially when you put it on your fingers it feels like it's going to be really gooey and leave your hair looking oily, but it dries nicely and with a little teasing you can very easily work out any "clumps" so you're left with unfrizzy, curly locks.I wash my hair, use two or three finger tips of this (in stages ... a little goes a long way), through my hair, particularly on the ends and leave to dry naturally. Once dry I scrunch my hair to "break up" any clumps that look dried together and I have curly hair all day, no mess,no wet look, no frizz, no fuss.On day two and three I use the revitalise spritz too and add a tiny amount more of this and we're good to go again ... I may even have been know to go to day four and five! There's no oily residue, no flecks and it smells nice too (I actually get comments on how nice I smell)!I imagine you could use it to give your hair a windswept and interesting look if you have a wave rather than a curly, but mine is beyond that stage.I cannot recommend this product highly enough. I may have to stock up, just in case they stop making it!.

I'm currently trying the Curly Girl Method and chose this cream as it was recommended for such use.On opening the bottle, the scent is like a pineapple / coconut mix with the creaminess of shea. For those who find the scent sickly, it doesn't last long as your hair dries but I personally, love it, as I like gourmand scents (please don't try eating it)I have waist-length, very wavy, Caucasian hair and used about a walnut sized blob to run through my wet hair after washing. I could possibly have used a little less but it was my first time, so...I wrapped my hair in a towel to absorb excess moisture and then scrunched my waves from the bottom before leaving to dry naturally.I have to say my hair looks super wavy,shiny and it doesn't feel at all weighed down or sticky. The cream has helped to smooth out & fix hair that is normally a frizzy mess into bouncy ringlets.I haven't been out in humid weather yet so will update this when I do, but so far, I'm very happy with my purchase.

I am in love with this line, and this product in particular. The first one I bought was the Curling Cream, and my hair practically ate it up. I loved the smell, the packaging, the quantity and its longevity, the ingredients, everything. So when it came to the time when I had to get myself some more, I decided to get this too. And it's even better! The smell is slightly different, less overbearing I suppose some might say. The slip on this though, is absolutely incredible. Someone should have taken a photo of my reaction when I first rubbed it between my hands. It has wonderful definition and shine, and as part of my method I first apply a tiny amount of the Curling Cream to a section,and then I twist pieces of my hair with this Curl Activator. I've been getting compliments all week. Whilst drying it leaves a slight crunch, but it's easily broken by scrunching my hair once or twice. Overall, it's one of the best products I've ever used on my hair and I strongly recommend it.

I have wavy curly hair,a lot of it and it is quite fine.I use a tiny amount and apply from roots to tips with my fingers on towel dried hair and apply my favourite hair oil on top to soften and to seal everything in.Then I diffuse.Hair looks super defined,shiny, bouncy and has a great volume.Only be aware that it activates excisting curl pattern and will not make hair more wavy or curly if it is not.Also it contains protein so can make your hair frizzy,stringy and dull if you don't need it or if your other hair products contain a lot of it already.And as any styling product it is not good for your scalp and better if you wash it off the same day.In my opinion using smth like that every day isnot good for hair health because doesn't matter how many oils you add every styler dries out your hair and clogges scalp.It is similar to make up in that sense.Anyway if used correctly it is great for a special event when you want to impress :)

Works like magic on Wavy Hair!! This definitely lives up to it's claims of being a 'Curl Enhancer' . I was sceptical at first because a lot of products say they do this but don't actually work and this one really does what it says! It makes my wavy hair much more defined and actually somehow curlier than it naturally is. I apply a tiny pea sized amount on my hands and whip it up to emulsify, then spread it evenly on my wet shoulder length hair. Afterwards I scrunch it with my hands and that's it, nothing else is needed. However if you feel you need more definition then you can add a gel or mousse on top but I prefer a softer look. Adds moisture to dry hair, smooths away frizz and gives curls a bounce.Great for refreshing hair on non-wash day as well by smoothing over a little bit of this product onto dry hair. Curly Girl approved and much loved favourite by many. Super affordable and lasts ages, what more could you want?

Have been having trouble with my toddler’s hair when starting the curly girl method. The US has better products than us but I’m so pleased I can order this online. I wasn’t sure at first as it seemed too heavy for his hair but I’d used too much. If you use a very tiny amount about the size of a pea it works brilliantly. It helps seal the moisture into his hair (as it really does have the consistency of a cream), and also makes his hair curl more and does mildly hold the curl in place if you don’t want to use hair gel. His hair isn’t perfect as I’m still trying to get enough moisture into his hair and figuring out the correct products to use but I will continuing using this.It does seem like an expensive hair product but the bottle is a good size and you only use a tiny amount each time so it will last for ages. So really this product is a bargain. It also smells lovely but not overpowering, like a tropical smell.

I never right reiws but as a fellow girl with curly hair and knowing how hard it is to get curls without frizz. My hair is shoulder length but thick, I do have afro in my hair too.This product i think is brill, it does advise you to section and add cream when hair is wet, what I found best was when wet putting about a 20p size of cream in hand then tipping my head upside down and putting on all the hair whilst scrunching the curls (instead of section it as it does go hard like mouse) then I standing straight and put remainder on top. Once it drys it DOES give you a kind of hard wet look but if you gently rub your fingers through, this gets rid of the hardness WITHOUT frizz.The next morning I just slightly wet hair scrunched it and added a little bit more cream and leave in conditioner.I use no hairdryer just wet hair, this cream and scrunch the curls with my hands. Nice and easy and good for the hair.

My bottle arrived literally 15 minutes ago and curiosity got the better of me and I decided to try a little bit on my dry hair. First impressions? This is an amazing formula. I’ve never tried anything that worked the way that this does. It literally seems like it “activates” my curl pattern, just like it says. There are a lot of products that claim this, but this one is not lying. I’ve yet to try it on my wet hair (before receiving this product I’d been applying hair gel to it and scrunching it out when it dries), but I am so excited to try it now! And best of all, you get a massive bottle for such a small price and you only need a tiny bit to get it to work.It also doesn’t feel sticky at all.It has the texture of a moisturiser. Obviously I will give it time before committing to anything, but my first impressions couldn’t be better and I fail to see any flaws thus far. Definitely worth trying.

After many years of applying heat to my hair and having bleach highlights, my hair has lost its natural curl and wave. I have thick hair and been looking for a good curl activator. I didn’t expect this to do much to my hair, but just after one use it restored my natural curl and wave. I use this after washing my hair, I apply my hair oil and leave in conditioner and comb my hair and then I apply this with some curl gel and plop my hair. And oh my god, I was amazed how much this worked! It left my hair with gorgeous curls for the first day after it being washed and plopped. However, I started to loose the curls after the second day, and it started to wave, but I think this is down to my hair being damaged.But gonna keep up with using this after washing my hair once a week, and see if the curls last long. But overall, a small amount goes a long way and would definitely buy again!

My review here will be very similar to the Cantu daily moisturiser which I bought in the same purchase.So far this is working great for me! I chose this brand on Amazon due to the excellent reviews and I'm excited to discover the Cantu range. Then I came across the Curly Girl Method and she uses it too so I was interested to see how she uses it to maintain her curls. The Cantu range seems genuinely good for dry hair and at such an affordable price-point when other hair products are just so expensive.This product gave my hair a lovely curl and even next day my hair looked in such good condition. I have caucasian, long, colour-treated, wavy, blonde hair that is extremely dry and frizzy.This product smells lovely but it's a strong smell so I would only use a little and apparently a little goes a long way. I will definitely continue to buy the Cantu range of products.

At first I didn't think I would like it due to the strong smell. Luckily it doesn't linger on my hair so I'm happy to use it. I'm not always going to use a gel and sometimes my hair needs help retaining the curls so this is great. It's very thick and rich so you don't need too much. I use a leave in conditioner 1st then add this, scrunch and style with my Denman brush. It leaves a cast so when my hair is dry, I'll put about 3 drops of jojoba oil, rub my hand and scrunch out the crunch. Defined and long lasting curls. I do stretch them though as I'm not a fan of corskrew curls which I have. I only wash my hair once a week and my curls stay all week. Out of habit though, I will refresh mid week just so I can detangle.The drawback is the plastic used on the bottle, it's very thick so makes it hard to squeeze out.

Another fantastic product from Cantu, I use this with my leave in of choice and it leaves my 3B hair sooo moisturised. I only use about a pea sized amount for each section as a little goes a long way. Helps my hair curl, be healthy and shine. And of course it's great news for us curlies as it has no nasties in it and you get a lot for your money. As for the people saying it left white residue in your hair, it sounds like you're using too much product. But if like me you like to use a lot of product on wash day so you don't have to reapply during the week, after you've finished your routine simply use a cotton tshirt or microfibre towel and scrunch or pat excess away. Will be rebuying when I'm out.Love this stuff.Also came quickly and well packaged so good seller too.

Guy in my 50s, fair amount of white hair- unable to get it cut and its getting rather un manageable at the moment.This was recomended to me for the moisture content.The smell is kinda tropical smelling, in fact it reminds me of a product range I used to use years ago called Protoplex Super Moist by Lamaur- but this is no longer available.Initially I used this with gel [I use joico] but found it was to much product- I used about half a little finger nail of this and a bit more gel. I cut the gel and just used this and found it great. Held my hair, made if feel a less hard and as a result sat flatter on my head- win win!Gonna check out the other products from this brand now.Using such a small amount this bottle will last me for ages

This is a great, CG-friendly product for waves, curls and coils.I apply some on my hair after washing, ideally when it's damp (but not dripping wet). I found that, when dry, it creates beautiful, tight, frizz free curls that last for 2-3 days. I am getting more compliments on my hair now! Plus my hair smells lovely and is soft to the touch as well.If my hair dries out I dilute some of the product with water or oil and apply to damp hair (I use a water bottle to dampen it), and in 5 minutes it looks perfect.Quick note: My hair is quite thick and loved the stuff. However it may be a bit heavy if your hair is thin.My hair has changed for the better, I'm a cantu convert now.I even carry some in by bag in a small container just in case.
